Been using DuckDuckGo for a month or two. It's mostly good enough for me.
I've been using it for years and have never looked back.
DDG is my default and a very good engine, however, it does struggle with search results in my native language.
You should. It uses Bing for its searches. So you are censored to oblivion.
I might be mistaken, but IIRC Bing is only one of the data sources DDG uses.
Gonna need to see a legit source on that that doesn’t read like right-wing nutjobbery or Russian botnik drivel.
What's being censored? You have control over safesearch, and searching phrases verbatim returns all sites where that phrase exists.
Safesearch (NSFW) ≠ Censorship (Political, Government Posts, etc.)
Honestly a good chunk of time its a better experience than google was
